More than one in three Tasmanian households struggled to put enough food on the table in the past year, Foodbank's Hunger Report 2026 found.

The report said 34% of households, or more than 84,000, faced food insecurity, up from 33% in 2025. Foodbank estimates more than 200,000 Tasmanians live in those homes.

"This isn't a small group of people somewhere at the margins," Foodbank Tasmania chief executive Cameron Johns said.

"These are people we work with, live next door to, see at school drop-off and stand beside at the supermarket. Or it's you."

Foodbank wants governments to set a national minimum standard for school breakfast programs by 2030. It sourced 2 million meals last financial year.

Government minister Roger Jaensch said the government was investing $7.1 million over four years to implement its new Food Resilience Strategy and support food relief programs and services.

So thankful for the generous donation of pet food that we could give away at Community Care today. The furry members of our families need to be looked after too, so we are very grateful to Petstock Kingston.
They are a family-owned retailer who are committed to making a meaningful impact for pets, the people who love them, and the planet we share, and giving back to the communities that inspire them.
Thanks Petstock!

At Community Care you may have noticed the addition of fresh fruit to our food offering in the last few months. Thanks to a generous grant from Hydro Tasmania , we are able to offer fresh seasonal fruit for 12 months! It's fantastic to be able to support families with healthy snacks to support a stretched food budget.
We are thankful to local supplier Meredith's Orchards for supplying our weekly fruit options.
If you need food support, we are open on Thursday from 11:30-1:15pm and a $20 donation will get you a great variety of pantry staples and frozen meat.
